Allplastics Engineering can manufacture a vast range of plastic washers for a wide spectrum of applications. These plastic washers are lightweight, give superior wear resistance over their metal counterparts and can be made in an extensive range of plastics including Acetal, Nylon, PTFE (Teflon), HDPE, Polypropylene, PVC, Polyester and Polyurethane. These materials are selected to suit a variety of conditions where corrosive and electrical resistance are required.
For large quantities of over 10000, the plastic washers are usually stamped from sheet. For smaller quantities and for closer tolerance applications the plastic washers are machined from solid rod.
Benefits of plastic washers:
- Low friction
- Good Wear resistance
- Non-corrosive
- High insulation properties
- Lightweight
Applications for plastic washers:
- Marine Food processing
- Packaging
- Sliding
- Thrust washers
- Electrical insulators
